Description
NewGen Freedom is an excellent boxwood. It was selected due to its good resistance to boxwood blight with proper care and resistance to boxwood leafminer. Its vigor helps it create an attractive plant quicker than many cultivars but it also makes yearly or twice-yearly pruning a must. NewGen Freedom, like many other boxwood cultivars, has a tendency to bronze in winter, especially if in full sun and/or unprotected exposure. Note all boxwood cultivars show some level of susceptibility to boxwood blight under extreme circumstances.
